== Anime & Manga ==
* In ''[[Vision of Escaflowne]]'', the [[Big Bad]]'s secret weapon, the Zone of Absolute Fortune, causes everyone affected to immediately pursue what they've always wanted. Nations who united only to fight a common enemy decide to resolve their differences with [[Weapon of Mass Destruction|weapons of mass destruction]], protagonists with military backgrounds get turned into [[Blood Knight
** ''[[Vision of Escaflowne Abridged]]'' has fun on just what causes Hitomi's visions: turns out that [[Magic: The Gathering]] cards are laced with LSD.
* In the ''[[Cowboy Bebop]]'' episode "Mushroom Samba", Ed and Ein test mushrooms they found on the rest of the crew. [[Hilarity Ensues|Cue hilarious montages of them tripping out]] while the rest of the episode's plot plays out around them.
Line 35:
== Live Action TV ==
* In the ''[[Star Trek]]'' franchise, this is a time-honored tradition:
** The original series has "[[Star Trek/Recap/S1/E04 The Naked Time|The Naked Time]]", in which a disease makes everyone get progressively drunker, and a [[Hate Plague]] created by a malevolent [[Energy Beings|Energy Being]]. In "This Side of Paradise", something was in the air that made an irradiated planet inhabitable, but made everyone happy and wanting to stay
** ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation|Star Trek the Next Generation]]'' gives "The Naked Time" a sequel, "[[Star Trek: The Next Generation/Recap/S1/E02 The Naked Now|The Naked Now]]", which didn't go over very well. (It didn't help that a ''drunk'' [[Creator's Pet|Wesley Crusher]] is ''still'' smarter than the rest of the cast combined.) There was also a telepathically-spread Vulcan disease that an ill Sarek spread, causing emotions to run rampant. A much milder example happened in "Night Terrors," in which not dreaming made the crew get a little ornery and forget things they were about to say by the end of the episode. (Maybe the writers thought it was a lot more dramatic than it turned out to be.)
** ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation|Star Trek the Next Generation]]'' also had the episode "The Game", in which aliens got the crew [[New Media Are Evil|addicted to a video game]] that made them really mellow in order to take over the ship. Data, not being susceptible, had to be put out of commission. [[Creator's Pet|Guess who saved the ship...]]
